Engine Knock, Need Ideas
Working on a friends car. 2010 Justa. The knock started the other day. I first thought it was the timing chain, but after removing the valve cover and inspecting, it doesn’t appear to be the problem. Inspected the spark plugs and no unusual misfire. No CEL’s either.
I made a short video with the sound.

Any ideas?

If you noticed, the sound does NOT get louder as he revs the engine. It stays the same pitch but becomes faster. for that reason I bet it is not a bad rod bearing but a $10 belt...I had a NAM member bring me his car for the same "shop diagnosis" only to find a chipped belt...poor guy was asked to replace his engine by two shops!!

I’ll post the results after I replace it.
